Post ur IDI!

Lets see, say TWO good pictures of ur IDI powered trucks and a list of what has been done to the truck overall.

1988 F-350 Custom RCLB 4x4 7.3L N/A ZF5

When i bought it, it was bone stock except the dual exhaust complete with pappy cap, running boards and pizza cutter 235/85/16 tires:


then:


took off the cap, ran over the running boards and bumped up the tire size slightly to 315/75/16s. also added some clear corner lights (very hard to find w/o the chrome trim), added a diamond plate toolbox and decked out the inside with a nice stereo. Added my own intake set up, turned the pump up a little, put in a set of G code injectors, synthetic erl in the diffs, trans and t-case, and im now going over the interior with sound deadener and freshening it up.

coming up for the big blue ******* is a black billet grill w/ off-road lights behind it, black altezza taillights, 92+ paddle mirrors, guages, 4" single exhaust, front recovery points, front LSD and who else knows.

I don't savvy the picture thing yet but here goes.
86 F250 4x4 supercab with a dually kit alcoa wheels, ats turbo, 4 spd with a gearvendors, nerf bars,(at least I think thats what they are called) grille guard, molded bug shield,110 gallon transfer tank and elec pump, aluminum diamond plate toolbox and bed caps,9" lightforce lights,headlight relays, 100 watt off road headlights, new brown paint and matching caption chairs and console from a two wheel drive,decent stereo,cb radio,trailer brakes,5th wheel hitch and tailgate,
extendable mirrors,reese hitch,K@N filter. I think that is all and this truck has never had any rust.

Next on the list of wants is a D60 frontend, either a T18 instead of the T19 or a ZF5 (haven't made up my mind on this one yet) home built bumpers/grill guard with winch,lighty modified engine rebuild(this ones getting tired) Possibly a true dually rear and some kind of locker,cab over camper then it will finally be done.

havet really had a chance to do much to my truck yet, but i bought it for 950 dollars at a public car auction, it had factory wheels with 235/85/16 tires(those had to go) dual exaust that singled back up right before the rear axle and a custom front bumper, since then i have added a ram-air intake mossy oak seat covers ford racing steering wheel cover, pretty good off road lights lol cant remeber the watts on them, pyrometer and a sunpro water temp, oil pressure and boost gauge, that are going to be mounted in a walnut box that hides that ugly busted out speaker hole(when me and my grand pa finish making it) and now rolling on 285/75/16 buckshot maxxis mudder with i cant remember the name of the wheels lol and very slowly working on fabbing a psd turbo off of a 1999 -03 powercroak
psd turbo in the works

Here's my 87 I snagged for $850, first pic is when I brought it home. I think I have had it about a month or so now.

Then I removed the wobbly retreads that were on it, and replaced them with some other factory wheels, and 265 75 16s, and added a stack that you can't see in this pic.


Then I came across a killer deal on a set of aluminum wheels with tires for less than a set of the factory Alcoa types from the yard, and here's how she stands today.
